Casper Candlewacks in the Time Travelling Toaster

Casper Candlewacks is the only boy with any sense in a village full of idiots...the fourth and final instalment in the hilarious Casper Candlewacks series. Most villages have an idiot but Casper's village is full of them. So being bright makes Casper something of an outsider. Luckily Casper has Lamp to him company - his less-than-bright best mate who is also a strangely ingenious inventor. Lamp's latest invention is a time-travelling toaster - or so he says. But can a toaster really transport them through space and time? Or will they both just end up as toast? This is the final tale in the hilarious Casper Candlewacks series. You'd have to be an idiot to miss it!

Lots of filler
By BigBrotherAmazon
Too much filler about common sense info on booking a flight which is not directly related to getting an upgrade. The main point seems to be to ask on the ground for an upgrade using various obvious techniques in my opinion, ask once flying if a business seat is available (don't want to give away the big secret for possible reasons)using some obvious reasons. This book was written in 2009 if not earlier and the some of these strategies assume once in flight there are actually empty business or first class seats and is not very realistic since they are almost always filled, given to valued customers before the flight even is fully seated. This is not 1999 post 911. One other advice is to pay for an upgrade. As flights are cut this strategy will make even less sense IMO. In summary just not worth the price...similar save on first or business class are sold on other online sites. Use common sense or ask other frequent flyers and save the money you would pay for the cost of this book. My advice if you are not a frequent flyer is to pick an airline that doesn't give away all it's empty seats to ff but sale empty business seats. I flew from Amsterdam to NYC on the great new business seats (really a bed) for $200 I paid when I checked in. Find an airlines that allow you to do those upgrades. You don't need a book to tell you that...even go to Trip Advisor or like sites for such advice.

I didn't have any idea how to go about this until I read this book! I thought one just waited to be eligible for an upgrade, which for me translated into waiting forever. Anyway, I'm glad this book is here to show me how to earn, ask, even charm my way for it. Detailed tips on upgrading strategies.Great tips too on cheap vacation and airline packages. Talk about taking full advantage of luxury travel!

many options for first class upgrades
By Lucy C.
Yes, I am one of those not aware that airline packages are flexible, I didn't appreciate upgrades before because I thought it was cheap to haggle for it. This book helped me understand that I wasn't being cheap if I was truly entitled to it. Thank you for a very concise outline on my many options for first class upgrades.

An excellent and therapeutic read!

Good reminders and nice to know I'm not the only one!
By Lisa
I could relate to this book well in terms of the guilt associated with being a Mom. The first half of it was a bit of a struggle to read because I was very eager to learn how to help myself, which is organized in the last half of the book. Amber had some good reminders and tips on how to help yourself, but I didn't get much help on how to drop the guilt. I did enjoy the case studies in the end. As moms we all have different struggles, it was helpful to see how several started living guilt-free in their own circumstances. A short read and worth that!
